Section 4: First Aid Measures Description of first aid measures Inhalation No specific treatment is necessary since this material is not likely to be hazardous by inhalation. If exposed to excessive levels of mists, remove to fresh air and get medical attention. Skin No specific treatment is necessary since this material is not likely to be hazardous by contact with the skin or mucous membranes. Eye IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. Ingestion No specific treatment is necessary since this material is not likely to be hazardous by ingestion. If large quantities are accidentally ingested (greater than a tablespoon), get medical attention immediately. Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed Indication of any immediate medical attention and special treatment needed Section 5: Fire Fighting Measures Extinguishing media Suitable Extinguishing Media Carbon dioxide, dry chemical powder, appropriate foam or water fog. Unsuitable Extinguishing Media Firefighting Procedures As in any fire, wear self contained breathing apparatus and full protective gear. Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Unusual Fire and Explosion Hazards Hazardous Combustion Products Advice for firefighters Section 6 Accidental Release Measures Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Personal Precautions No special controls or personal protection required under conditions of intended use. In the event of bulk spills, wear suitable protective eyewear, clothing, protective boots and protective gloves. Evacuate immediate area. Ensure adequate ventilation. Refer to Section 8. Emergency Procedures Ventilate area. Contain spilled product. For small spills, add suitable absorbent material. Scoop up and place in an appropriate liquid tight container equipped with a tight cover for disposal. For large spills, dike spilled material or otherwise contain material to ensure runoff does not reach a waterway. Place spilled material in an appropriate, liquid tight container equipped with a tight cover for disposal. Minimize contact of spilled material with soils to prevent runoff to surface waterways. Dispose of in accordance with Section 13. Environmental precautions Prevent spilled material from entering storm sewers or drains, waterways, and contact Page 3 of 9
with soil. Methods and material for containment and cleaning up Containment/Clean up Measures Section 7 Handling and Storage Precautions for safe handling Handling Avoid contact with eyes. Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure to skin or mucous membranes, and breathing mists/vapors. Use in a well ventilated area, away from all sources of ignition. Keep container closed. Wash thoroughly with soap and water after handling. Conditions for safe storage, including any incompatibilities Storage Store at room temperature 20 25ºC (68 77ºF).

Section 8 Exposure Controls/Personal Protection Control parameters Exposure Limits/Guidelines Refer to the occupational exposure limits / guidelines for the individual product components. Glycerin (56 81 5) Exposure Limits/Guidelines Result Canada Quebec OSHA TWAs Exposure controls Engineering Measures/Controls Personal Protective Equipment Pictograms 10 mg/m3 TWAEV (mist) 15 mg/m3 TWA (mist, total particulate); 5 mg/m3 TWA (mist, respirable fraction) No special controls are required under conditions of intended use. Local exhaust ventilation should be provided when handling bulk product. Respiratory In the event of a bulk spill, and where risk assessment shows that air purifying respirators are appropriate, a NIOSH (US) or CEN (EU) certified air purifying respirator equipped with organic vapor cartridges may be permissible under certain circumstances where airborne concentrations are expected to exceed exposure limits, when adequate oxygen is present and as a backup to engineering controls. Use a positive pressure air supplied respirator if there is any potential for an uncontrolled release or any other circumstances where air purifying respirators may not provide adequate protection. Eye/Face No special personal protection required under conditions of intended use. In the event of a bulk spill, appropriate eye/face protection should be worn. Hands No special personal protection required under conditions of intended use. In the event of a bulk spill, wear rubber or nitrile gloves. Skin/Body No special personal protection required under conditions of intended use. In the event of a bulk spill, wear appropriate protective clothing.
